Ichtyor Tides' latest album, Mortisle Elytrion, is a captivating journey through a dark and mystical realm. The album is a fusion of various genres, including black metal, folk, and ambient music, which creates a unique and immersive listening experience.
The opening track, "Mortisle Elytrion," sets the tone for the album with its haunting melodies and atmospheric soundscapes. The use of traditional instruments, such as the flute and acoustic guitar, adds an organic element to the music that complements the harshness of the black metal elements.
The album's standout track is "The Serpent's Kiss," which features a beautiful acoustic guitar melody that is layered over a driving drumbeat and fierce vocals. The track seamlessly transitions into the ambient soundscape of "The Forgotten Forest," which offers a moment of respite before the album's epic finale, "The Endless Void."
